Welspun Living's shares experienced a 7.77% increase, reaching Rs 181.17 in Tuesday's trading, marking a third consecutive day of gains. The stock has risen by nearly 14% over the past three sessions, attributed to strong investor sentiment following its impressive Q1FY27 performance.

Following the robust quarterly results, brokerages Motilal Oswal Financial Services and JM Financial retained their 'Buy' ratings on Welspun Living.
